Real You Leadership

Day 7/30: Oversharing observations— reflecting on my 9-year anniversary since quitting my 6-figure tech job and starting my coaching business.

tl;dr I’m so grateful for my sweet past self for taking the leap into the unknown. She didn’t know what she was doing and where she was headed, but she knew enough to say “this ain’t it” and ask “what if…?”

What if there’s more to life than the tradition, linear path?

What if I could start over?

What if I can be who I really am? Choose what I really want? Love how I want to live?

The values-aligned life is often lonely at first, especially if you’re the first, and it’s MESSY to go against familial, cultural and societal expectations—but it’s often the most sustainable and fulfilling.
